Japanese Lacquered and Gilt Wood Buddhism Statue from Edo Period
Located in Atlanta, GA
An exceptional and wood statue of Buddhism Guardian Seitaka Doji from Japan circa Edo period (1603-1868), likely the earlier part of 17th century. One of two chief attendants of Fudou Myouou (the other being Kongara Doji), the name of Seitaka Doji is a transliteration of Sanskrit "Cetaka", meaning servant, slave, and he is said to personify expedient action. He is most commonly found on the right side of Fudou, together with Kongara Doji on the left, forming the Immovable triad, Fudou Sanzon, the terror of evil doers. Seitaka largely adheres to the iconography of a wrathful youth with fleshy body and face, skin in the color of a red lotus, has his hair tied in five knots, and holds a vajra in his left hand and a vajra-club in his right hand, but the actual artistic representations of him in Japan do...

Chinese Ming Dynasty Bronze Nanhai Guanyin, 16th/17th Century, China
Located in Austin, TX
A decidingly charming Chinese polychromed and gilt cast bronze figure of Nanhai Guanyin, Guanyin of the South Sea, Ming Dynasty, 16th/17th century, China. Guanyin, the bodhisattva of compassion, is portrayed here as a beatific figure seated upon a raised lotus pedestal over waves. Guanyin is dressed in heavy robes, and wears an elaborate headdress. The small figure of Amitabha Buddha in the headdress positively identifies this figure as Guanyin. Guanyin rests one hand in his lap, holding a cup of pure water said to be able to alleviate all suffering. His other hand is raised, holding a willow branch which is used to sprinkle the healing waters. The two lotus blossoms to either side of Guanyin would originally have supported figures of the acolytes...

17th century Antique stone temple fragment - OriginalBuddhas
Located in DEVENTER, NL
Unearth the ancient whispers of India’s sacred architecture with this Antique stone temple fragment, a 17th-century relic (or possibly older) that carries the spiritual essence and artistry of a bygone era. Carved from natural stone, this enigmatic fragment measures 27.9 cm high, 7.5 cm wide, and 23.2 cm deep, its weathered surfaces etched with traces of intricate motifs—perhaps floral patterns, divine figures, or celestial symbols—that once adorned a grand Hindu or Jain temple. Originating from India, where temple construction flourished under dynastic patronage, this piece reflects the mastery of stonemasons who transformed rugged stone into narratives of devotion, likely part of a pillar, frieze, or sanctum wall. Weighing 2.1 kgs, its compact yet evocative form bears the patina of centuries, with softened edges and mineral deposits that testify to exposure to the elements and ritual use. The fragment’s abstract geometry and symbolic carvings hint at its original context, whether depicting deities like Shiva, Vishnu, or Tirthankaras, or cosmic themes central to Indian spirituality. Created during a period of architectural splendor under empires like the Mughals or regional kingdoms, it bridges the tangible and the divine, offering a tactile link to India’s temple...
